Bert Ferguson Aquatic Facility

THE CITY OF MEMPHIS

The walls of this prototype for community aquatic centers in Memphis open to the outside during warm months to provide natural ventilation. The plans feature a 7,800 SF zero-depth entry pool with built-in pool toys, a curvilinear water slide, and six 25-yard competition lanes. Designed for year-round swimming, the indoor pool opens onto a sun deck overlooking a community park and incorporates local art into the building's surfaces.
